The facade is a canvas of triangles, meticulously arranged in a parametric pattern. Each triangle contributes to the overall composition, creating a dynamic visual effect. Beyond aesthetics, these triangular elements serve a dual purpose. First, they provide shade—casting intriguing shadows and protecting the interior from direct sunlight. Second, they allow controlled natural daylighting. By adjusting the opacity or spacing, A.I can fine-tune the balance betweenlightandshade.
The varying opacity of the triangles allows precisecontrolovertheamountofsunlight entering the building. During peak hours, some triangles may be more transparent, while others provide shade. This dynamic response minimizes the need for artificial lightingandreducesenergyconsumption.
